Introduce myself

Hello everyone!

My name is Marcel and I’m from the Netherlands and I like to introduce myself and my 2003 Daihatsu Sirion 1.3 sport.
Here’s a picture

I’m not going to lie, I like to have some information that I will ask for in another topic.
But ofcourse I want to be part of a community of one of the coolest carbrand in the world! And I look forward to see other member’s stuff!

They are a fantastic car with a brilliant engine. My only gripe about how they came from factory is the driving position is not low enough for me by at least 25mm. Looks great in white.

I removed the lower foam from my Sirion seats and fitted thick seat covers. Now I sit low enough to heel and toe along with the lower centre of gravity, as well. Also knocked out all the deadening and replaced the heavy carpet with a black bed sheet and bolted the now bucket seats back in. A solid connection with the car through the Adelaide hills. With NS-2Rs and a camber kit with new shocks all round. Also removed all the vibration dampening weights on the rubber blocks., under front bumper and exhaust etc. Lots of daily fun in the EJ-DE’s for over 12 years so far.

Thanks! I too think it looks great in white.
It’s a rich kind of white, not refrigerator white.
But yes the seats are way too high, especially the passenger seat wich is not adjustable in height.
But I think I will leave it the way it is.
